rth loom slow, Drawn out as suiteth with the place and time In twelve colossal shapes instead of stars. Their attention is drawn from these by two spirits, of whom one calls itself the spirit of the harmless earth, and the other the spirit of the harmless beasts, who mourn the ruin that man.has brought upon them, and, joined and assisted by Lucifer, revile the wretched pair for the curse they have brought upon God's fair creation. When they have driven Adam and Eve to a frenzy of agony, Christ appears, rebukes the earth-spirits and commands them to become man's comforters and ministers, foretells the redemption which He will accomplish for the race, and bids our first parents,-- In which hope move on, First sinners and first mourners; love and live, Doing both nobly because lowlily. The earth-spirits promise obedience and disappear. A chorus of angels then chants the promise of immortal life to mortals, and thus the drama ends. We have given the plot of the Drama of exi

like the story of how many New England families of fifty years ago it reads I Three of the sisters in due time became the wives of three ministers, and the fourth that of a professional and useful teacher. Of the brothers, the eldest, after graduating at college, became a successful teacher; the second, on whom the care of the home and widowed mother fell, has done good service in the church and world; and the third is still, as for the last quarter of a century, an approved minister of Christ. A whole family thus given to the cause of learning and religion is just the source from which we might expect a pioneer and leader, or at any rate an efficient promoter, of some needed movement in education or in ethics. And such a character we believe we have in the subject of this sketch. From the first she gave indications of possessing large native ability. To her natural inquisitiveness was added clear and quick perception, with a corresponding fulness of the reasoning faculty; a

in the British Museum, filled with its various translations, editions, and versions. In Italy, the powers that be published an edition in which all allusions to Christ were changed to the Virgin Mary,a piece of craftiness that argues better for the book than for its mutilators. But remarkable as was the literary popularity ofsorganizer and agitator; and even religious newspapers joined in the assault. True, her gospel brought not peace but a sword, because it was the old Gospel of Jesus Christ! She was an agitator, as are the great winds that blow all abroad, and give us a pure atmosphere to breathe;--as every power is, whether it be of earth or of hd hid it in three measures of meal until the whole was leavened. Aside from its political influence, Uncle Tom was a mighty power in ;he world as a witness for Christ, and was no less a contribution to the cause of Christianity than to the cause of emancipation and to American literature. One peculiarity of it is, that the ine

employ it with perfect right and propriety; and we trust the use of it will return. Like others, Mr. Crow had felt the incongruity with Christian faith of the heathen symbols,--the inverted torch, the Egyptian gateway, the Grecian temple,--which occur so frequently in our burial-places, and desired something new and appropriate, which should express a Christian's hopes. The design consists of a marble pedestal, of elaborate and beautiful construction, surmounted by a group of statuary,--Christ restoring to life the daughter of Jairus. The prostrate form and the countenance of the dead maiden vividly present the fact of our mortality. The noble figure of the Saviour is full of tenderness, but without sorrow: he is doing a work of joy. On the entablature of the pedestal are the inscriptions, on the one side, I am the resurrection and the life: on the opposite side, he that beleveth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. On the broad spaces beneath, the family names are to
